3 out of 4 youtubers who got the cam for review have no idea how to properly test a camera.  Go straight to cameralabs. He is in depth and talks fast to get straight to the point.

If you are comparing these two cams it sounds like you really never needed those A1 specs in the first place.

It takes some pretty extreme shadow recovery before the diff between lossless and lossy raw becomes noticeable.

I'm a wedding photographer (no video) but I am still pro flip out because I can do low angle vertical shots with it.  Up till now I am limited to horizontal if I want to shoot from the ground.  Or ...

If it could do flash sync at 1/200 with electronic shutter then I am in.  I had an A1 for a week and the elec shutter with flash was the one thing that left a big impression on me. Almost sure it ...

And also the 10fps with flash

I use the r3 and r4 all the time.  R4 is a bit better. Incrementally.  Won't change your life but its nice.

I use the rIII and the rIV together and it's almost the same. Tried the A1 for a week.  That is a snappy camera.  I think it's the electronic shutter.  You press the button it's done before it ...

I shoot a lot of weddings with my a7rIV.  Would I switch to A1 if it was a bit cheaper. For sure.  I tried an A1 out for a week.  It was nice but it didn't really improve my weddings much. Do I ...

People do seem to take it very personally when sony makes a camera that isn't just right for them

I use the grip for long days, the pinky grip for big lenses and nothing at all when hiking The pinky grip by sony is way overpriced for what it is but the meike one is just right.

I checked out Matt Grangers second batch of raws with the a7rIV.  Sharpness is great. I like the little bit of extra bokeh at 35mm.  A bit less flare resistance than other lenses in the range.  So ...

Review coming?

While I was in the Youtube rabbit whole I saw a few different reviewers have it.  Time for someone to get us a really detailed review.

Not the best pics but I didn't see any glaring flaws in the lens.  Would love to see the shots on an a7rIV

They should invent a SD to micro SD adapter that allows you to insert 2 micro sd.  You can toggle a switch to use it as double size or redundant backup.

I have a canon TTL flash that I use on my sony (single pin firing) No issues here.

The number of 50mm ish lenses available for sony is staggering.  The 35 1.8 seems pretty popular now so I wouldn't hold my breath for a replacement any time soon.

My money is on the a1 II

I shoot a lot outdoors in the salt air here in Hawaii and I have noticed that my MI shoe always starts to corrode after a few years.  I clean them with rubbing alcohol which visually helps a bit ...
